Hi my name is Fredrik and i´m from Sweden. Some of you have probably seen my project on the BoxerVille. But it would be fun to start a project thread here and show what I do. The bus is a 54 Klein 11 and has served as a working bus to a building firm. It is completely untouched and never welded. It will not be painted and should keep the patina.
Welding, painting, and assembly are my own work...
It was a while since I put some pictures here, but I fix it soon
I only have an IPad currently, and it was not the easiest to fix the pictures I realized! |

I have bought panels and body parts from both Auto Craft and Gerson. But some parts I have made, as tophat, I, inner sill, heater tube, and the centre chassis sections.

Wheels are always difficult. I found four genuine 4.5 inch Sprint Star that will fit the bus really nice i think. Rebuilt two to 5.5 inches

Hmmm... I'd say do it if you are going to do it right... Correct inner pressings, belly pans, etc. I would not just cut a hole in the roof _________________ EMPI Power Rules! |
